Today, intra-oral mapping technology is one of the most exciting new areas in dentistry since three-dimensional scanning of the mouth is required in a large number of procedures in dentistry such as restorative dentistry and orthodontics. Nowadays, ten intra-oral scanning devices for restorative dentistry have been developed all over the world. Only some of those devices are currently available on the market; the others are still passing the clinical testing stages. All the existing intraoral scanners try to face with problems and disadvantages of traditional impression fabrication process and are driven by several non-contact optical technologies and principles. The aim of the present publication is to provide an extensive review of the existing intraoral scanners for restorative dentistry with particular attention to the evaluation of working principles, features and performances.

Abstract

Today, intra-oral mapping technology is one of the most exciting new areas in dentistry since three-dimensional scanning of the mouth is required in a large number of procedures in dentistry such as restorative dentistry and orthodontics. Nowadays, ten intra-oral scanning devices for restorative dentistry have been developed all over the world. Only some of those devices are currently available on the market; the others are still passing the clinical testing stages. All the existing intraoral scanners try to face with problems and disadvantages of traditional impression fabrication process and are driven by several non-contact optical technologies and principles. The aim of the present publication is to provide an extensive review of the existing intraoral scanners for restorative dentistry with particular attention to the evaluation of working principles, features and performances.
